1955 Map of Sunapee

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Sunapee Lake dominates this mid-century landscape, acting as a central hub for the surrounding villages of Burkehaven, Blodgett Landing, and Georges Mills. The era’s recreation and conservation efforts are evident in the expansive Mount Sunapee State Park, which includes the State Park Beach and the prominent Summit overlook. In Newport, the county seat, a dense cluster of infrastructure such as the High School and Wright Hospital contrasts with the rural character of outlying hamlets like Croydon Flat and Goshen Four Corners. Local heritage is anchored by institutions like the Little Red Schoolhouse Museum and country congregations at Wayside Chapel and St Andrews Ch. The terrain transitions from the water-level settlements to the high ridges of Croydon Mountain and Grantham Mtn, where lookouts and small upland ponds like Lake Solitude define the geography.
